Session description
Using the Technology Categories for Purposeful Instruction to guide our work, this lightning shoot out round will point out some easy ways for us to incorporate AI into teaching and learning. In the category of Video & Audio we connect essays to songwriting. Or with Visual Learning creating an AI selfie for an ice breaker. In the Communication category, we explore a mock interview with a chatbot - or a parent letter in multiple languages. With nine categories and a buffet of AI tools, let’s see how we can be authentic and purposeful in their use in our classrooms!
